Hi, I'm learning about sonic booms right now in Physics (high school). And I was wondering if it is possible for a pilot to hear his sonic boom by first going faster than the speed of sound (breaking the sound barrier) and then slowing down (letting the waves rush past him)? I asked my physics teacher and he said he didn't know the definite answer.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. I tried searching around (this forum and the rest of the internet) and couldn't find the answer, but I have a feeling that the answer is no.
P.P.S. Sorry if I posted in the wrong forum. This isn't homework, I promise!
